  1. hey, im not sure if this question has already been asked but.
    Could people who have made their own grind plates please post a pic of
    how they look and also tell me how good they r, and how i could go
    about making them and attaching them to my snafus !! ??

    Coz im either gonna make myself a grind plate or buy the Kommando grind
    plate from danscomp :S but they r expensive to ship to aus, so give me
    a few opinions on wat u think i should do 🙂

  2. There are some pictures of my homemade grindplate at the bottom of 'this
    page' (http://tinyurl.com/9hvt5).

    I made them by cutting and bending a piece of aluminum. I drilled a
    hole on one end to screw onto the reflector hole on the pedal and I
    bent the other end so that it clips over the other side of the pedal.
    It's easy to do if you have a hacksaw and a drill, and probably any
    piece of scrap sheet medal metal should work.

    My grind plate works great on waxed steel and such, but I have yet to
    test its durability on a ledge. It may not last long for that
    methinks. It slides like ice, though.
